<h3>Detroit Women of Comedy Festival WORKSHOP</h3><h3>Saturday, May 16 —2-3:30PM — ant hall</h3>$25 - Space LimitedEver replay a performance in your mind long after you’ve left the stage? Feel your shoulders tighten right before you grab the mic? Wonder if the pause was too long — or not long enough? Are you reading this and feeling sweaty right now? Good news! You're not alone. Breathe, Bend &amp; Be Funny is a playful, grounding yoga and mindfulness experience created for performers to help regulate stage anxiety, strengthen presence, and learn skills that support a smooth recovery in our mind and body-just in case a joke doesn’t land. Blending breathwork, accessible movement, and mindfulness exercises, participants will learn skills to feel centered and connected in high-pressure moments — on stage, in community, and in everyday life. __________________________________________________The Detroit Women of Comedy Festival celebrates and elevates women, trans, and non-binary comedy makers from Metro Detroit and beyond.
